Hillary Clinton delivered her most forceful critique of President Donald Trump's 2016 victory on Tuesday, taking personal responsibility for her failed campaign but also pointed to the timing of a letter from FBI Director James Comey and Russian interference as factors.
"If the election had been on October 27, I would be your president," she told CNN's Christiane Amanpour at a Women for Women event in New York.
"I take absolute personal responsibility. I was the candidate, I was the person who was on the ballot. I am very aware of the challenges, the problems, the shortfalls that we had," Clinton said, before adding that she was "on the way to winning until a combination of Jim Comey's letter on October 28 and Russian WikiLeaks raised doubts in the minds of people who were inclined to vote for me and got scared off."
Clinton, who is currently writing a book that partly reflects on her 2016 loss, added, "The reason I believe we lost were the intervening events in the last 10 days."

Oct. 27, the day she killed our ambassador then lied about it? Day she sold Uranium to Putin? Day she collapsed? Called America deplorable? Shouted LGBTQ Rights? Stunk up the debates? Defamed Catholics? Stopped Campaigning? A lot happened that day!
So she is taking responsibility by not taking responsibility.
“I was the one running” is a statement of fact. “I sucked as a candidate” is a statement of responsibility.
When she said “I shoulda won” she should have added “if it weren’t for those meddling kids and that dog!”
FUHRC! She still hasn’t faced reality - that as the so-called smartest woman in the world, a denizen of Washington for over twenty years, and a lifetime in politics, she ran a horrible campaign and was a horrible candidate whom was soundly beaten by a political neophyte, Comey, the mythical Russian influence, Wikileaks, and Bill Clinton and Loretta Lynch be damned.
I like her to explain Michigan. It had nothing to do with Comey. Trump out worked her. He came to Michigan multiple times. He came to the heart of “Iraqi Christian” country, Macomb County, where people felt Obama had abandoned them, rightly so.
She assumed Obama voters would vote for her, a horrible mistake. Many Obama voters become disillusioned and had buyers remorse.
And why would the black community come out in the same numbers for her?
I don’t think she was ever going to win, she just thinks she was robbed. I don’t care about the popular vote, the fact that densely populated areas voted for her is irrelevant - especially when you consider that’s where the crime comes from. It’s hardly the best metric for deciding how we should all be governed.
She lost because people saw her collapse and get thrown into a van like a sack of wet cement.......and NO ONE looked SURPRISED in her group!!
She’s crying because she believed those face poll numbers and by them she thought she should have won; remember Kerry and those exit poll numbers? The Lefties said he should have won because of them.
“”If the election had been on October 27, I would be your president,” “
If Ross had not run, you would have divorced Bill and moved back to Chicago.
Just make it Oct 31st wench.
Tell me CNN dirtbags, how can you deliver a “forceful critique” of someone else’s victory? Next up, whatever team that was critiques the Patriot’s Super Bowl victory. It’s called being a cry baby and making excuses.
I wonder if the election was held the day after the secret service threw her into her van after fainting, would she have been elected?
If the SuperBowl was only 55 minutes long we'd be champions today!
holy crap ! delusional.
This is freaking hilarious...pun intended.
CNN is quickly turning into comedy Central.
I agree, November 8th, is just killing the libtards!
Best election ever!
:p
That’s Nov 8, 2016
Truly.
Hillary is mentally impaired by her clinically proportioned delusions of grandeur. It’s been obvious for years, decades actually, and was manifested in both of her ridiculous campaigns for the nomination and then the presidency. Both were full of arrogance and entitlement and damned little substance.
It was worse in 2016. Even her health was on blindingly bright display, against TRUMP.
This pathetic buffalo is in the midst of her swan dive in her swan song, and yet still, due to her mental condition, she does.not.have.a clue!
People enjoy the warm, homey aroma of boiled cabbage and urine while in her rarefied presence.
HA!HA!HA!
Bitter Clinger.
So with that earlier election date Comey would just have let out his little observation ten days earlier.
Same result.
LOL! When I first glanced... I thought those lights, at stage left, were IV’s on a delivery rack! HA!!
Do that visual with IV’s. LOL!!
